Ludwig van Beethoven
Music is the electric soil in which the spirit thinks, lives and invents. All that's electrical stimulates the mind to flowing surging musical creation. I am electrical by nature.
Ludwig van Beethoven
such incidents brought me to the verge of despair, but little more and I would have put an end to my life - only art it was that withheld me, - ah, it seemed impossible to leave the world until I had produced all that I had felt called upon to produce.
Ludwig van Beethoven
It seemed unthinkable for me to leave the world forever before I had produced all that I felt called upon to produce
Ludwig van Beethoven
One must not hold one's self so divine as to be unwilling occasionally to make improvements in one's creations.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Life would be flat without music. It is the background to all I do. It speaks to the heart in its own special way like nothing else.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Love demands all, and has a right to all.
Ludwig van Beethoven
